I am sitting here, at my REMAX Office, stunned at your article and the complete and utter viciousness of your words against Realtors.

You have obviously had a very bad experience with an agent and for that, I’m sorry. But to use your power as a newsman (I use the term loosely) to lash out at all Realtors saying that in this market we’re all “desperate” and telling our clients now is a good time to buy when in fact, it might not be thecase, WOW — you just leave me almost speechless with your accusations and acrimonious words.

Now is a tough time for Sellers, Realtors, lenders and for the market in general. We strive to be the very best source of information and honest, truthful advice. Realtors aren’t the ones who have hurt this market, as you hopefully are aware. As in any industry, our preservation is about selling homes but our integrity is about selling homes to people who CAN buy, who WANT to buy and who are QUALIFIED to buy. Our job is not push a sale to have a sale and if you think that — then your integrity is in question.

Shame on you — when there is so much negative in the world already — you just added to it. You should apologize to your readers (who I hope are smart enough to avoid your columns from now on).
